I am glad the rains arrived; but maybe the timing could have been better (just cann't win all the ntime). A Classy Lady (or Curious Cow) was posing for her Photo Shoot @ 2:03 . Always enjoyable, interesting & informative, with great filming & excellent commentary. Thanks for sharing your work day / week. 🚜 🚜 🚜🐄🐄🌽🌽🌽🐄🐄 🚜 🚜🚜
So glad you got some much needed rain. Hope the crops jump up in size and yield. The weather sure forces you to have to make some tough decisions. Great video and thanks.
GREW UP DRINKING LOTS OF MILK EVERYDAY. LIKE COWS. WHEN THE COWS COME UP TO THE CAMERA I SAY “HI” AND “WAVE”. MY AUNT AND UNCLE HAD A DAIRY FARM A LONG TIME AGO. WOULD STAY THERE SOMETIMES A FEW DAYS IN THE SUMMER WHEN I WAS AROUND 10 OR SO. BIG MILK COWS.
great video. Rain is always a blessing and a curse at the same time. Your editing skills are on point. I enjoyed the close up and drone shots. Looking forward to the next one.
Hello Jan, I'm happy for you that you got rain. We're still hoping for rain, our barley is also not ripe and is harvested with a very poor yield. Greetings Dieter
@@TheStuportUNLESS he sleeps with the cows, curious creatures, he'd be getting nudged, sniffed and licked all night long. The cow version of caring 😂.
Jan, I really enjoy your video's and learning about dairy farming, my knowledge is limited to having a pet cow when I was a kid. You must have one of or largest farms in Saskatchewan (thank god for spell check as there was no way I was spelling your province name properly) . Do you ever get a chance to have vacation time? Best wishes
Thanks! There are I believe 20 farms that are bigger than us in Saskatchewan. (From 350-800 cows). Yes I’m the winter I usually go on a few trips so I’m very fortunate! Thanks for watching!
Hey Jan, I think I saw a few red Holsteins in the herd…I love them! I’ve watched for quite some time and never noticed them before….show a new born calf…they are cute
In the 45+ years since I was milking cows, one thing has not changed, I think they are more curious than cats. (spent a lot of time staring at the camera)
VERY GLAD you all finally got some substantial rain! A real blessing to be sure! It has to be frustrating to plan on paper what you need to do and then HOPE that the weather does it's part! Stressful to be sure, but you all seem to roll with the idea that somehow, someway you will figure what you can do to just get the best possible result! I appreciate how everyone keeps a smile on their face, always seeing the positive from the negative. Your videos are very grounding in so many ways Jan...Thanks as always for saving us Fans a seat for the ride a long! Cheers and blessings from COW-lumbus, Ohio MOO 🙏
I love when you are feeding some cows don't care if the food dumbs on their head and others are a little smarter and move out of the way. Great video thanks for sharing!. Hey real quick how are the wildfires affect you now. I don't see anymore smoke in the air. I live in Ohio U.S.A. and we had 3 days of really smoky skies. Not easy to breath while working outside.
Hey Jan just wondering have you guys ever thought about getting one of those sweeper attachments for the bobcat to clean out the bunkers of the loose old silage
if you had that rain on friday i'm surprised you guys didn't flip it with your rake on the sunday or monday. your last video you were talking about your big boy tractor with no pto, get your mechanic to look up a hydraulic motor for your liquid spreader and use a pto coupler. if you made that work the 285 could run the pump and your dad would still have the versatile for the sprayer i'm the big boy has the hydraulic power to run the tanker. just a thought, hope your next rain hits soon
7-9-23 Illinois Jan one question............If you explained before I missed it. .when you scrape down the flooring, how does the slurry get to the manure lagoon ??
Armchair quarter back here. 1) Is there anyway you could have fresh feed for the cows to come back to after morning milking or at least have 60% of it there for them? You’d see a significant intake lift for no capital expense. 2) Is your nutritionist telling you to mix a load for 15mins? Is there not a massive risk of over processing?
So the grass got wrapped up, good to see. Hopefully the squares as well. I liked how that one cow from group two stayed bedded down in the stall until you came along with the rake. She was thinking just let me hit the snooze button one more time! That 17 mm must have been part of the microburst that hit the SE corner of the city last friday? Do you have a rain gauge at your house and if so did you get any? Great way to end the weekend with a new post, Thanks.
It’s funny that the cows are so excited for food that they let it hit them in the face. I wish somebody would make me perfectly nutritious and bite size meals. I really get tired of cooking sometimes!
Okay Jan I have a question. I have noticed that some of these cows have huge udders while others not so large, does this factor into the amount of milk they produce? Enjoy your videos tremendously.
It can and it can't. A cow with a tiny udder won't produce a lot that's for sure but a huge udder doesn't have to always mean a lot of milk. Some cows just have naturally bigger udders and some only have big udders when they're full with milk but they will be small after getting milked
They have 13, including their wheel loaders, tractors, combine and skid steers. *Wheel Loaders:* - CASE 721F - New Holland W130B *Tractors:* - BUHLER VERSATILE 2210 - CASE IH 2294 - CASE IH 7130 - CaseIH MX285 - J.I.

Cows are very aware of their environment, if anything changes the immediately take notice. Weather it’s a gate, new wall, or something’s been cleaned and made to look new again they’ll always notice!
It is sad that once the cows are no longer producing at a profit they are brought to slaughter. All my sadness does go away with a little bit of HP sauce and baked potato. I appreciate all the work you do. I just wish cows were not so cute.
Hey Jan, everybody, Jeff here.. just got home from milking cows!! Dairy farmer from eastern Pennsylvania. Love your videos!!!

The cows can spot that camera in a heart beat, always good for a laugh.
Haha yea the love licking cameras to 🙄
Always makes me laugh
So glad you got some much needed rain. Hope the crops jump up in size and yield. The weather sure forces you to have to make some tough decisions. Great video and thanks.

You just amaze me with all the things you can do.
Thank you very much!
Hiya Jan, you and your sister Neline make the best videos on YT. Thank you, keep em coming....have a great week.
Thanks for watching!
@@saskdutchkid You bet, always watch and enjoy.
Great video brother from the imperial county California 👍👍🇺🇲
Thanks for watching!
The amount of work that goes into your farming operation is amazing. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Impressed with the cleanliness of the barn and the.care of the cows😊
Thank you! Dads the one who gets credit for the clean operation! 👌🏻
Thank you Jan. Fabulous video
Another very interesting video Thank you 😊😊
Thanks for watching!
Hello Jan, I'm happy for you that you got rain. We're still hoping for rain, our barley is also not ripe and is harvested with a very poor yield. Greetings Dieter
Sorry to hear! I walked in our barley fields today and the ones that missed this recent rain are in incredibly rough shape
Does anyone recall an episode where Jan said if he got 2500 likes he would sleep in the cow barn on hay?? 😅😅
Hmmm I guess I still gotta do that
🤣🤣🤣 The best part is Jan and Family and Crew really do make sure their Cows are very comfortable, so i'm pretty sure it would be a restful sleep!
@@TheStuport Unless a cow decided to sleep on top of Jan lol.
@@TheStuportUNLESS he sleeps with the cows, curious creatures, he'd be getting nudged, sniffed and licked all night long. The cow version of caring 😂.
@@dougdiplacido2406 🤣🤣🤣 There are a few "Gals" in the herd that pay particular attention to Jan!
You work hard Jan.
How many days a week do you work at the farm?
What do you do in your free/fun time?
I work everyday unless I go somewhere for a break! I also am aloud to sleep in some days 👌🏻
I would have done the same thing and baled that hay before the Rain... you made the right choice 👍👍👍👍
Jan, I really enjoy your video's and learning about dairy farming, my knowledge is limited to having a pet cow when I was a kid.

Does your farm hire for people to work there,,that would be very exciting to work there,I would love to ❤
Hey Jan, I think I saw a few red Holsteins in the herd…I love them! I’ve watched for quite some time and never noticed them before….show a new born calf…they are cute
Neline often shows the calves on her channel: A Dairy on the Prairie. Since she's one of the ones responsible for feeding and care.
Thanks for the content mate.take care.
Thanks!
Good choice, I hope, Jan. I’d have put my money on bailing before the rain. Hope it worked out. 👍🏻🇨🇦🐄
you guys ever consider corn silage? Why or why not?
To dry, you need rain in the later months of summer which we rarely get
In the 45+ years since I was milking cows, one thing has not changed, I think they are more curious than cats. (spent a lot of time staring at the camera)
Your absolutely right!

Thanks for the great comment!! And as always thanks for watching!
Rainis the most popular topic since so much depends on the right amount at the right time.
Hope you get the rain you need. 😊👍👍
I love when you are feeding some cows don't care if the food dumbs on their head and others are a little smarter and move out of the way. Great video thanks for sharing!. Hey real quick how are the wildfires affect you now. I don't see anymore smoke in the air. I live in Ohio U.S.A. and we had 3 days of really smoky skies. Not easy to breath while working outside.
Glad to see you got the round bales finished. Even better to hear you got some rain.
Hey,i am dipesh from nepal 🇳🇵.i studied veterinary .i want to go canda to work in veterinary farm.if you have some job please get me there ..
I really love these short but often vidios and not like one every 2 weeks but 15-20 min long vidos keep them coming love the content
Pretty awesome video man! I always enjoy seeing the good Ol JI Case 2094 at work baling. You don’t see much of that model of tractor anymore.
some folks think milk comes from the grocery..they have no idea how it got there..Bless you all
It is amazing to see the cows eating the silage plus mixture and think that is being turning into milk and cheese etc.
Good video.
Thanks!
Yay, rain 🌧️ 🌧️ 🌧️
Very informative and entertaining at the same time
A LOT OF WORK THANKS FOR HI TECH

7-9-23 Illinois Jan one question............If you explained before I missed it. .when you scrape down the flooring, how does the slurry get to the manure lagoon ??
Typically the lagoon extends in a trench under the barn.
Great video!!
In Scotland you would bailing because you won't be given the opportunity to leave it a bit longer!!!!
Do you have a feed sheet for each load type?
Yep! 4 different ingredient lists. Steers, heifers, dry cows and milk cows.
How many weeks can these cows get milked every day before they are dried off or rested?
A cow gets milked for 305 days and is dry for 60 days in a year!
Crazy how much wind drones can take these days... great shots!
so cute how curious the cows get with the cameras.
Let it get another rain. That what y'all really need is rain. U bail it get no rain wld b my luck
Your probably right 😂😂
Delší dobu to odebírám jsou pěkná videa 👍👍👍.Akorát lituji dobytek když je šeredné počasí že se nemají kde skovat .Zdravím 🇨🇿🤗🤗🤗
Looks like one cow wants to be a movie star, giving she just keep looking at the camera!!!

Time for a new flag on the bins!
GOOD MORNING TO ALL
It’s funny that the cows are so excited for food that they let it hit them in the face. I wish somebody would make me perfectly nutritious and bite size meals. I really get tired of cooking sometimes!
Ha!! That one cow got some quality brush time in before heading off to be milked.
Wow! 17 mm sounds like a welcome blessing to me!!
Jan has your farm ever considered expanding the parlor to make milking faster?
They'd like to upgrade to a rotary parlor, but they don't have the money for it right now.
Good vidio
Why not wrap the bales in plastic?
They are dry bales, no need
How many cows per kg of quota?
Wat geweldig dat het heeft geregend
great looking dairy feed, your holsteins have no reason not to produce!
Okay Jan I have a question. I have noticed that some of these cows have huge udders while others not so large, does this factor into the amount of milk they produce? Enjoy your videos tremendously.
It can and it can't. A cow with a tiny udder won't produce a lot that's for sure but a huge udder doesn't have to always mean a lot of milk. Some cows just have naturally bigger udders and some only have big udders when they're full with milk but they will be small after getting milked
Interested that you are making the executive decisions regarding harvesting crops
Tried to figure out the music at 7:30 but Shazam has been worthless.
Playing the weather……we all can relate
Great video as always
Is whey year round or Winter feed additive?
I literally just finished milking for the first time in almost a year and you're the first video for my recommended 😂
do you have some one come in and take care of the cows fuffs ?
Hoofs? Yep! I’ll make a video on it very soon
Amazing
I wonder why you have to do the milking so early???
It’s a good habit to have! Always at the same time, if you don’t it’s very easy to let it always get later and later
That is a huge field how many bales did you get?
We made 65 total I think
How much tractors do you have?
They have 13, including their wheel loaders, tractors, combine and skid steers.
*Wheel Loaders:*
- CASE 721F
- New Holland W130B
*Tractors:*
- BUHLER VERSATILE 2210
- CASE IH 2294
- CASE IH 7130

*Combine:*

*Skid Steers:*
- BOBCAT S130
- BOBCAT S590
Go Farm Party!
What do you do with the milk cows after their milking days are over. I know they do not die of old age?
They're sold for beef, and other cattle products.
How often do you replace the knives in the feed wagon?
Wow I made #11 like, cool
Thanks!
❤
Cows always seem to know where the camera is! Do they have some sort of sense for this? Just asking!
Cows are very aware of their environment, if anything changes the immediately take notice. Weather it’s a gate, new wall, or something’s been cleaned and made to look new again they’ll always notice!
It is sad that once the cows are no longer producing at a profit they are brought to slaughter. All my sadness does go away with a little bit of HP sauce and baked potato. I appreciate all the work you do. I just wish cows were not so cute.
Thank You
in mobile, al we average 65+ inches of rain per year
😊😅
Don’t you ever use hay additives through the baler??
bail it!
👍
Why that Parlor instead of a rotary Parlor ?
Money
Ok
👍👌❤️🇨🇦,

Looks like your flag needs replacing on top of the bins.
Ever thought of milking 3x a day
Kun je een keer een video maken in het Nederlands?
It would be very difficult for me but I think about it sometimes!
